"What I love about Xano is that it never cuts corners on developer experience. The platform is built on solid, time-tested principles that every engineer respects, and it shows in every workflow. Unlike other tools that try to abstract away the fundamentals, Xano empowers me to move fast without ever compromising on clarity, scalability, or control."

Deployed and managed on world-class infrastructure

Deployed and managed on world-class infrastructure

Stop managing DevOps. Every Xano instance runs on Google Cloud, provisioned with Docker and orchestrated by Kubernetes — standardized with best practices so you don’t have to. Security, scaling, and compliance are already done-for-you, letting you focus on building the logic that drives value.

On Enterprise plans, you can deploy Xano on your own cloud and resources, ensuring compliance, security, and governance at any scale.

Develop in code — with superpowers

Xano gives you the control of code with the acceleration of modern tooling:

XanoScript (XS)

A new scripting language for backend logic, built for developers. Write in code while staying perfectly in sync with Xano's visual builder.

Work in your IDE

Use our VS Code extension or connect through MCP to Cursor, Windsurf, or Claude Code. Push, pull, browse, and edit your backend directly from your development environment.

Version diffing

Review backend changes Git-style before deploying, with clear visibility for your whole team.

AI in your editor

Get AI-assisted scaffolding, code suggestions, and backend logic generation directly inside your IDE.

SDK Generator

Instantly create strongly typed SDKs from your Xano APIs with autocomplete and scaffolding to speed up delivery.

Visual layer for collaboration

Visual layer for collaboration

Every function and workflow you build in code is automatically mirrored in Xano’s Canvas View. That means:

Engineers see exactly what’s running in production.
Teammates and product managers can follow along visually, reducing misalignment.
Non-coders can validate AI-generated logic step by step — without ever touching the codebase.

Extend and integrate
without limits

On Enterprise, bring your own PostgreSQL database or connect directly to Xano's. Run and manage sidecar Docker microservices to reuse code you've already built. Hook into Redis, cryptography, queues, or any external service — all while keeping everything centralized and production-ready.

Build & host full stack

Xano isn’t just your backend — it’s the foundation for your full stack. With static frontend hosting, you can sync and deploy frontend code side-by-side with your backend on Xano’s enterprise-grade infrastructure.

Host your frontend and backend together

Each workspace supports dev and prod URLs, with custom domain support for both.

Seamless workflows

Connect GitHub or GitLab repos for one-click updates, or upload built frontend files directly.

Internal apps, fast

Perfect for internal tools or vibe coding projects. Deploy to Xano for reliable, secure hosting with custom domain support.

Flexible frontend freedom

Use React, Vue, Svelte, or any frontend framework — or bring in AI builders and vibe coders. Xano connects to them all.
